Tomorrow is African Penguin Awareness Day. Did you even know there were penguins in Africa? South of Cape Town, near Simonstown at a place called Boulders Beach, you can find these little guys going about their business. Boulders is park of the broader Table Mountain National Park. And, having the penguin colony there is what makes it one of Cape Town’s great beaches to visit. This map will show you where it is and how to get there. And, at Boulders, you can get really close to them.  So, here is a tribute to them through photos and a short video.
